Bat surveys: a guide

4th April 2011

We are often asked by clients what bat surveys are required and when.

We have produced this guide to help:   Bat surveys: a guide

There are 18 species of bats found in the UK. All of them and their roosts are fully protected by both national and European legislation.

Our approach to resolving issues relating to bats is a practical one, allowing developments to proceed in a cost-effective way whilst minimising disturbance to the bats.

If you need advice on bats, please give us a call.
